Singer and socialite Paris Hilton arrived at the court house two hours late. Law officials say that the delay was caused by the Sheriffâs department refusing to allow the “judgeâs order” to pick up Hilton. The Sheriff reportedly believes that the police department has the exclusive right to make decisions where Paris is concerned. The 26-year-old Hilton was already weeping when she was led into Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauerâs courtroom and it didnât get any better for the hotel heiress. Sauer was obviously upset with Sheriff Lee Bacaâs decision to allow Hilton to serve the remainder of her sentence at home. Baca had cited a âmedical conditionâ as reason for allowing Paris Hiltonâs early release but Sauer wasnât buying it. âI at no time condoned the actions of the sheriff and at no time told him I approved the actions, at no time did I approve the defendant being released from custody to her home,â Sauer stated during the proceedings. Hilton, who had reported to the Century Regional Detention Facility on Sunday, served three full days in jail but had been credited with five after being let out early Thursday morning. Her release incensed Assistant City Attorney Dan F. Jeffries who claimed, âHer release after only three days erodes confidence in the judicial system.â After several attorneys from both sides of the case spoke Sauer laid down his ruling, âThe defendant is remanded to county jail to serve the remainder of her 45-day sentence. This order is forthwith.â With that Hilton broke down and screamed and left the courtroom yelling “It’s not right!”. As her daughter was led out to serve the remainder of her sentence Hiltonâs mom openly wept. Source: ©2007 TransWorldNews
